to determine compatibility. It can be much more revealing
to compare Venus signs in romantic relationships! Find

If your Venus is
in Virgo:

When your Venus is in
Virgo,
you express love by doing things for, and fussing over, your loved
one. You notice little things about your partner, make mental
notes of their likes and dislikes (this may sound contrived, but
it's notit's simply the way you're wired!), and genuinely try
to help your lover in practical ways. You listen to what your
lover has to say, and you have something sensible and intelligent
to say in response! In fact, you are great at communicating about
your relationship.

One dilemma that can easily
happen with this position: Your partner doesn't
always know how to please you. You might have a simple answer, but
he/she may still wonder. You see all of the details of your
relationship. You worry about its viability, and tend to the
practical details of partnership. These are important
contributions to the relationship, but because they lack glamour,
your partner may not always appreciate you. You are not the most
romantic partner, and your tastes are rather simple (although, as
mentioned before, it is hard for others to see that simplicity
because you may have a habit of fussing). Can't see the forest for
the trees? Your partner might accuse you of this, and it may be
true. You will benefit from sitting back and infusing yourself
with some faith in the big picture, once in a while. But, you are
needed! And there are partners who will see that. You work hard at
making yourself indispensable in your partner's life. Generally,
you don't throw yourself into love affairs too readily. This does
not mean you are chaste, like the Virgo of yore. Some Venus in
Virgo natives can even be promiscuous. But when it comes to gooey
romance, where lovers bare all, you are rather selective and
self-contained. You are a very sensual being who wants to feel
safe before giving yourself to another. Venus in Virgo has a
reputation for being critical. This does happen, but it generally
is a symptom of insecurity. You can't help but see the failings
and the holes in any partnership, and you can sometimes be quite
reticent about entering a partnership. Generally, though, you will
see what's wrong with a person at the outset of a relationship
when it doesn't feel safe to you as yet. It's a defense mechanism more
than anything! Your own insecurities can propel you to see faults
and problems in your partner. Once you feel safe, however, you are
not quite the fussbudget Venus in Virgo is made out to be. You
value effort put into a relationship (in fact, for many with this
position, effort from their partner is at the top of their
list).

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Aries: Here,
we are mixing Fire (Aries) and Earth (Virgo - you!). It's not an
easy combination, for certain, but it has its merits. One of the
most noticeable differences between you and your partner is
his/her need for stimulation and excitement contrasted with your
desire for safety and security. You can be quite active together,
and pour some energy into activities, but your partner's impulsive
and competitive nature may leave you feeling insecure. Both of you
are simple in your needs, but those needs are markedly different.
Your partner isn't the most flowery of lovers, and neither are
you, but he/she can be downright insensitive at times. You are a
sensitive soul, although not quite as delicate as one might think.
You will put up with so much, just to make a relationship work,
but you do want some appreciation for all your efforts. Both of
you value honesty, and you'll generally get it from each other.
Your partner will likely appreciate your willingness to please, in
the moments when he/she notices this trait. Money matters will
most certainly bring some conflict, as you are more cautious and a
natural worrier and your partner can be the classic impulse
buyer. Shared interests are important to you, and this may
also be a problem, as you and your partner are really quite
dissimilar!

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Taurus:
You and your partner are both Venusian Earth signs, which means you
definitely share
some common ground. You want to build a workable partnership, and
so does your partner! You look for security and safety in
love...ditto for your lover. One of the main differences in your
temperaments is your willingness to make adjustments. Your partner
is a more stubborn soul, possessing staying power, for sure, but not the
flexibility that you so gracefully offer any partnership. This
issue may be the most difficult of your problems together. Both of
you are sensual lovers, appreciating the simple pleasures of sex.
Sexually, your partner is more capable of calming your nervous
nature than most lovers, helping to make you feel whole and
scads more comfortable in your own skin. You appreciate the
aura of safety that quite naturally surrounds your partner. He/she
senses your commitment and integrity in partnership, which is very
pleasing indeed! Shared interests and projects are important to
you in terms of satisfaction derived from partnership, and this
may indeed happen with your Venus in Taurus partner, although you
might be the one doing more of the hard work.

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Gemini:
Because you tend to value intelligence and communication, there
can be quite a bit of mental attraction between you and your Venus
in Gemini partner. Both of you are somewhat restless and curious
people. Although sharing ideas is important to you, your partner
may be less discriminating than you in terms of who he/she
communicates with. You come alive in an established relationship.
Your partner, on the other hand, requires a little more freedom
and may often turn to other people in addition to you for mental
stimulation. This is healthy for your partner, but it may be
somewhat intimidating for you, as you prefer to be the most
indispensable person in any partner's life. You also tend to be
more sensitive in matters of the heart than your happy-go-lucky
lover. Your partner thrives on variety, and tires easily of a love
relationship that becomes too predictable. You are restless as
well, but you are at your best in an established, rather
predictable, and safe relationship. Both of you are flexible
people, although your partner may take this to an extreme that
makes you feel uncomfortable. You may begin to question the
sincerity and constancy of your partner over time.

How You Relate to a Partner
withVenus in Cancer:
This pairing is one of the better combinations in practice! Care
and nurture will be a strong theme in this relationship. This is
most likely to be a low-key relationshipperhaps not as exciting as some, but
fertile in a quiet way. The physical and sensual aspects of love
are important and emphasized in your relationship with this loyal
and nurturing partner. Your partner's mood swings in love may
spark an occasional problem, and he or she might find your approach
to love a tad dry at times. Both of you, however, crave security
and dependability in partnership, and you are both very capable of
delivering these things to each other. You and your Venus in
Cancer lover come alive in a safe environmentexactly the kind of
atmosphere you enjoy creating. You value the sincerity of your
partner's approach to love, and he or she senses your willingness to
put effort into making your relationship work. You may find your
partner lacking in the communication department, however, simply
because he or she places higher value on non-verbal expressions of
love. You need to understand that your partner is very sensitive
to criticism, and what you might consider constructive criticism
might result in some feelings of rejection. With understanding and
tolerance, however, your partner can help you see the forest for
the trees, and you, with your gentle ways, can stimulate your
partner to open up a little more than comes naturally to him or
her. More than likely, there is a lot of respect between the two
of you, and a feeling of security that is enviable.

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Leo:You are the worrywart in love, focusing on what will
come of your relationship in the future. Your Venus in Leo lover,
however, lives for the moment, fully enjoying the delightful
passion and desire that is often characteristic of the first stage
of romance. You worry about the practical side of
the partnership. Your partner expresses his/her love for you in a
lavish, showy manner. He/she is consumed with the romance of your
relationship, and might expect you to feel the same way.
You easily feel threatened by your partner's apparent "experience",
but do remember that your lover is given to brag a little, and
he/she is trying to win your favorperhaps the wrong way! In
his/her desire
to be viewed as irresistible, your partner may inadvertently make
you feel insecure. You express your love by laying solid groundwork for your partnership.
This doesn't sound exceptionally romantic to your starry-eyed
lover, but the practical
side to your relationship is important, and somebody has
to do it (Venus in Leo would prefer not!). Try not to feel
intimidated by your partner, and enjoy his/her generous love
nature. Your partner may be so lavish with praise that it seems
insincere. It's not! Don't overanalyze it. Virgo and Leo are side-by-side signsthey
don't share the same element nor do they come from the same
modality. The result is a lack of understanding between the signs.
Do not despair, however! With a healthy dose of tolerance, this
relationship can be handled. A conscious relationship is what
Astrology can help with. Being aware of the different personality
traits and needs of each partner is the first step to greater
understanding.

How You Relate to a Partner
who also has Venus in Virgo:
Both of you value the same things in love, which is a good
starting point. Shared interests are important to you, but in this
case, when two Venusian Virgos are together, it would make a
little more sense (a word you both love!) to have different
projects and interests. Why? Because you both tend to want to run
the show when it comes to pet projects. In the love relationship
in general, however, you are flexible and attentive. It may be
difficult to choose a leader! There doesn't always have to be a
leader in a relationship, of course, but the relationship might
become a little bogged down in details. Ideally, you have some
strong Water or Fire signs elsewhere in your chart, helping to
infuse some energy and heart into an otherwise somewhat dry
combination. You need to establish some far-reaching goals for the
partnership, something that doesn't come too naturally for either
of you, simply because you are too busy taking care of the
business at hand. You can be somewhat nervous in love, and your
partner is inclined in this direction as well. Be careful not to
pick each other apart, and enjoy the fantastic conversations you
will inevitably share.

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Libra:You
and your lover share a love of balance and harmony, which can be a
major point of attraction between you. One
of the problems that arise between Venusian Air (Libra) and Earth
(Virgo) temperaments, however, is a fundamental difference in styles of
loving that can lead to misunderstandings. You are certainly a
thinker, but your partner is more given to sharing flights of
fancy while your ideas are more conservative and practical. Your
partner might find you too skeptical in matters of the heart; at
the same time, you might consider your partner to be too
idealistic. Your Venus in Libra lover has a somewhat detached manner, and you
might interpret the "airs" that he/she puts on (read:
charm!) as a lack
of sincerity. Loyalty is of utmost importance to you, and your
lover is certainly capable of giving a lot to the partnership. In
fact, he/she lives for partnership! But your partner's detached
manner might make you feel somewhat insecure and threatened. Both
of you, however, are very willing to make adjustments in order for
your relationship to work. You can enjoy very stimulating
conversations, especially if you appreciate each other's different
styles of expression. Both of you are very willing to bend and
adapt in order to keep the relationship alive, and this can make
all the difference when two dissimilar personalities pair up.

How You Relate to a Partner
withVenus in Scorpio:
Trust doesn't come extremely easy to either you or your partner,
but put you together, and the atmosphere feels quite safe. Your
partner is passionate and intenseperhaps even provocative. If
he/she senses passion and commitment is missing or waning, your
lover may go to any means (often subtle) to keep the relationship
from becoming boring. This is because your partner can be somewhat
addicted to emotional excitement. You are usually receptive to
your partner's wishes and needs, and you tend to bend your ways
accordingly. You work hard at making your relationship
worksomething that your partner senses and appreciates. Neither
of you is frivolous about committed relationships, and if you and
your partner are committed to each other, this pairing can be hard
to break. This pairing combines Venusian Earth (you) and Water
(your partner). When you understand each other's different styles
of loving, the combination can be very fertile. Problems generally
arise between the differences in focus. Both of you are committed
to making your relationship last, but you value practical
expressions of commitment, while your partner values emotional
ones. Subtle control issues may be the source of problems over
time. If your partner senses any emotional distance on your part,
he/she may use various means to regain some sense of
control. Generally, you only appear "distant"
because you are busy tending to the cogs in the machine of your
relationship. You may find your partner's silences frustrating, as
you are always willing to talk about your relationship and don't
always understand why your partner resorts to giving you the
silent treatment! Your partner is skilled at knowing how to push
your buttons, however, and this may be one of the more potent ways
he/she has discovered to get your attention! As long as
game-playing is kept to a minimum, this relationship has many
strengths and much potential.

How You Relate to a Partner
with Venus in Sagittarius:This combination is one of the more difficult
ones. There can be considerable attraction at the beginning, but
some major disconnects in terms of values and relationship styles
are likely over timenothing insurmountable, of course! The
common ground you share is a desire to learn through your
relationship and a willingness to talk things over. Your partner
values your keen insight and you can have some wonderful
conversations. Your Venus in Sagittarius lover, especially, gets
off on the sharing of ideas, and enjoys philosophizing. You are
certainly the more practical partner in this pairing, and your
partner may find you a bit of a stick in the mud at times. You may
complain of his/her blind faith in the relationship, preferring
that your partner live in the here and now. You value effort put
into the relationship, and you can't help but see all of the
"little things" that make up its whole. Your partner, on
the other hand, prefers to think of your partnership in grander,
larger terms. This can be very annoying for you! You will likely
disagree on how to spend money as well. Your partner is not a
save-for-a-rainy-day type of person by any stretch of the
imagination (unless Saturn is aspecting his/her Venus)! Your lover
needs space and at least the illusion of freedom. He/she is very
threatened by any attempts to confine him/her. Needless to say,
your partner will be much happier if there is a strong feeling of
growth in your relationship. Making plans and defining goals may
help, but attempting to control or cage your partner in will have
unfavorable results.

How You Relate to a Partner
withVenus in Capricorn:
Both of you have Venus placed in earth signs, and the
similarities between your needs in romance and partnership will be
obvious. Security in partnership is a shared value, and each of
you takes responsibility for their share of the relationship.
Although pairing two earth signs sounds a little...well, dry...there
is sure to be plenty of mutual respect and appreciation
circulating between you! Your partner cherishes some moments of
solitude, and that is something that you will need to understand
and respect. There is no reason to feel threatened with this
behavior. Both of you are somewhat reticent at the beginning of a
relationship, perhaps more so on your partner's side, perhaps
because both of you are responsible people who can be a little shy
and cautious in matters of the heart. It may be slow-moving at the
beginning as a result. However, this is a commitment-friendly
combination as you will find much to trust in one another. Both of
you have a work ethic and are relatively conservative with money.
You will work hard at making things work, and so will your
partner. Each of you is concerned about putting down roots.
Criticism tends to come naturally to both of you, so you will have
to try to channel it into constructive areas instead of letting
loose on each other! All in all, however, this pairing is an
easygoing and stable one.

How You Relate to a Partner
withVenus in Aquarius:
Your partner gets off on visions, possibilities, and
opportunities. You, on the other hand, are most concerned with
making a relationship work. Mentally, you and your partner might
have much to share. Both of you enjoy having meaningful
conversations with the people you love. What you prefer to talk
about may not be compatible, however! You believe your needs
are simple, and in many ways they are. You respond best to
practical displays of affection, and because your Venus is in an
Earth sign, you value your partner's physical presence. A partner
who is always running off to see friends, for example, could make
you feel somewhat insecure and decidedly unloved. Your partner
values exactly that freedom, so this is an area in your
relationship that you both will need to work on. Your partner's
appreciation of you is paramount. Otherwise, you are prone to
feeling like you have done something wrong. Your partner shows his
or her love in different ways, and the independence your lover
needs, if misunderstood, can lead you to worry far too much. Note
that if you loosen up and be yourself, your lover will appreciate
you all the more. Misunderstanding of each other's unique and
different love natures is what is most likely to divide you. This
relationship can be a little more challenging than some, but
compassion and understanding can most certainly make it work.

How You Relate to a Partner
withVenus in Pisces:
This is a case of "opposites attract", except that when
signs are literally opposite in Astrology, they share a common
thread that can bind them together. This is a magnetic
combination. You sense in each other a common sensitivity, but you
express your love in different ways altogether. The truth is that
you have much to learn from each other. Relationships become
challenging when the very qualities that attract you to one
another in the first place become a source of friction later.
Always remind yourself that your partner is just that--your
partner, not an enemy. You will appreciate your lover's gentleness
and sympathy, although you can find him or her somewhat evasive at
times. This is because while you are happy to define love, your
partner prefers to leave some things unspoken. Faith in love is
something your Venus in Pisces partner can teach you, if you are
open to it. You can help ground your partner, reminding him or her
that order in a partnership is helpful for establishing a sense of
purpose, when done in moderation. Moderation, in fact, is the
answer to establishing balance in your relationship, and with love
and compassion, you will find it easier than most couples to work
toward that goal.

points of comparison that need to be assessed before making any
judgments (if indeed a judgment is necessary!) about the overall
compatibility of two people. All combinations can work with
love and understanding! While some combinations may be a
little easier to deal with than others, there exist countless
real-world couples who make each and every sign combination work.
